The Duchess of Edinburgh was the picture of elegance on Thursday evening as she stepped out to attend the Royal Corps of Army Music dinner at Gibraltar Barracks in Camberley.
She looked simply stunning in a lace gown but it was her jewellery that did the talking. Though her pieces were subtle in size, they were large in value (we’re talking a collective worth of over £15,000), and oozed luxury.

For the Royal Corps of Army Music dinner, Sophie chose the ‘Lindsay’ dress from Erdem which features a metallic lace-covered bodice and skirt, cinched at the waist with a tie belt.

The mother of two amplified her look by adding a black faux far jacket from an unexpected brand – Zara. Her hair was more voluminous than ever with head-turning height at the root and feathery soft ends.

It isn’t the first time the royal has chosen the Erdem dress for a glittering evening occasion. In 2023, Sophie wore the dress to a reception and dinner at the Queen’s Landing Hotel in Niagara on the Lake during her trip to Canada.
